@vonrocket when was that? i wasn't there but i have both shows on disc, never noticed even a dark star jam

[casware123]

Best show Ive ever been 2

[vonrocket1]

No lyrics, but clearly it was Dark Star.

@vonrocket1 How did they do? Dark Star could never be even remotly close to how the dead played it. I've heard Dark Star even try to play it and couldnt come close.

Sounds like Mike is doing that on purpose. Changing it up like. Improv would be my guess. Challenging his boys.

I think it is a brilliant moment, though. I hear Mike reinforcing the challenging content of the lyrics musically by pushing everyone into harmonic discomfort as well.

Like we expect life to last forever.

I think they actually did Super Mario Bros. I don't know when but it def. sounded like them.

[vonrocket1]

They played Dark Star in Atlanta. I was there July 3-4 1999.

a lot of mislabeled stuff was out there in the napster days. there was one labeled as phish and the dead playing ripple even. i wish.

[maccabiallstar]

they did tour with the giant country horns in the early 90's so its possible they played that super mario
